Taxpayer Registration - Organisation

You need to register with the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) to get a Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) if you:

  • are registered with the Company Registry or Friendly Society Registry
  • are a statutory body or non-governmental organisation
  • are a partnership
  • open a bank account or to do any other financial transaction
  • conduct any business with a government entity or private sector

 

The TIN is a unique number that you will use for the entire lifecycle of your organisation.  There is no need to change or replace your TIN.

 

Fill out and submit this Form if you require a new TIN or some information about the organisation has changed.  You can apply at GRA’s main office or any of our branches.
